Whats more powerful than a determined intrapreneur? A team of intrapreneurs. Plus, greater networking and collaboration helps intrapreneurs connect with key decision makers in the organization who can help move projects forward, : Intrapraneurs need to be able to move just as quickly as their organizations in responding to market shifts or other external events

: Dont make intrapreneurs jump through hoops to get responses to requests. Webb calls this the yes chain, which becomes more complex and layered as organizations grow. . Proving a pool of seed money will help get intrapreneurial ventures off the ground as they are proposed and approved, versus waiting for the next annual budget cycle.
